Out and About in Alaska

This is what Alaska looks like during what we call "The Thaw."
When I say we, I mean residents of Alaska. The snow melts and there are puddles EVERYWHERE. Consequently, this basketball court was flooded. You might be thinking, "Oh! Poor Alaskan kids! Now they can't play basketball." But keep in mind that this court has been under FEET of ice and snow for at least six months. I'm a sure a little water doesn't stop them from playing.

Brian is standing on a big block of wood meant to keep cars out of the park. Nothing fancy, just fun.











This is a nothing special water tower. But I didn't grow up around these, so they're still cool to me!
